I love this set and use it multiple times a week. It is great for washing things like tomatoes, grapes, and strawberries. I also like it for salting vegetables like cabbage and thinly sliced cucumbers for salads. I can weight them down and get some of the water out in the colander and the water collects in the bowl. It is very light. I just wish it fit in my microwave for steaming but it’s a little too tall.
